On The Darkness "christmas time (don't let the bells end)"

yes, i know it's not Christmas just yet, but that doesn't mean we can still talk about this. every year at Christmas time, there are a million bands that jump one making remakes of classics or making their own songs for this time of year. some are good, some are bad, and some are just plain weird. now i always find it funny when metal bands do x-mas songs. i mean think about it. a style of music that is based around darkness, being an outsider, and from time to time, Satan. but even with that there are bands like Twisted Sister who put out an x-mas album and it works. but this song, "Christmas time (don't let the bells stop)" is just a lil (forgive the pun) fruitier than fruit cake. but then again, i've never really seen The Darkness as being a very serious band to begin with. though this is a little more out there than what i've heard from them before. it is a good song and makes you smile and laugh a little when you see Justin Hawkins sprawled out on the floor in some sort of sexy Santa outfit. in the comment below tell me what you think of this song.
